g-body monte carlo ss build, front control arms

[chumscustoms]

just trying to get a feel for what good people have to say about certain front upper and lower control arms. I am curious about the positives that each brand or design may bring to the table.
Im looking to uppgrade my upper and lowers and then go with a better sway bar, this will be getting a set of coil overs
all info is appreciated
thanks

I vote for SPC upper control arms for sure. You cant beat the adjustability of the SPC uppers. As for lowers I would go with Global west or DSE. I went with SPC uppers and lowers but wasnt happy with the sloppy MIG welds on the lowers compared to some of the nicer DSE/Global west lowers that are TIG welded and just plain look like better quality. If I had it to do again it would be SPC upper/ DSE lower.

For ultra premium Made in USA quality, take a look at ours. Our lower is factory geometry with a canted ball joint receiver to facilitate lowering. Our upper has additional caster built-in so you can get a modern alignment without a ton of shims. The lowers are available with poly or Delrin bushings and the uppers come standard with premium Delrin. Another cool option is 1/2" taller upper ball joints. With a moderate spring lowering and the 1/2", we have some pretty nice handling G-bodies out there.

If you choose to mix uppers and lowers, our lower is compatible with most anything, including the SPC uppers. Also, we are QA1 coilover compatible (and perhaps others) out of the box. Afco's require some modification due to the larger footprint of the lower mount.
